Morgan: Blades and Boro disappoint

15 January 2010 02:03

The Blades currently lie in eighth place, two points adrift of the play-offs, while Middlesbrough have won only twice in 11 matches under Gordon Strachan since sacking Gareth Southgate in October.

Blades skipper Morgan said: "I think Middlesbrough will be disappointed not to have done as well as Newcastle and WBA, but then again we're not totally satisfied with our current position.

"They have had a change of manager and will no doubt be upset with how things are going at present, but they've got plenty of quality players and we must respect that.

"They let a good manager go in Gareth Southgate, but replaced him with another good boss in Gordon Strachan, so I suppose it just hasn't happened for them and I don't think they'll be relishing a trip to Bramall Lane."
